This book explores the intersection of artistic practice and cultural diversity within the global art world. It grapples with questions about how the art world navigates and interprets cultural differences amid the proliferation of biennales in major metropolitan centers worldwide. These biennales serve as platforms for showcasing diverse artistic practices but also raise questions about the broader phenomenon of globality in contemporary art.
At its core, the book investigates both real and imagined dialogues between artists and writers. It recognises that without a personal connection with an artist, the meaning of art can remain elusive. Therefore, it begins with a shared horizon of interest between artists and writers, exploring how these exchanges shape interpretations and deepen understanding.
In essence, the book probes into the complexities of navigating cultural diversity within the art world's celebrations of artistic pluralism. It seeks to unravel how these dynamics influence artistic discourse and perception in an increasingly interconnected global art landscape.
